You've seen the encouraging reports about the growth of green jobs. Now Forbes shares a list of the top green jobs that rake in $100,000 or more a year.

Among those quoted for the package of articles about the growth in green business roles — and the broadening scope of traditional jobs to include green dimensions — is GreenBiz.com's Joel Makower, the chairman and executive editor of Greener World Media Inc.
Here's what Makower said, "We've gotten to the point where the environment is way too important to be left to environmental departments.
"Rather than flooding the business world with environmentalists, we need people with traditional skills that understand challenges and opportunities in a growing green economy."
TheLadders.com lists jobs of all sorts that pay $100,000 a year more. Visit Green Jobs at GreenBiz for a list of eco-friendly jobs with compensation that spans the pay scale.
